The People of the State of Colorado, Petitioner v. Louis Alonzo Madden, Respondent — Hood, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Hood dissented from the majority's conclusion that Madden was entitled to no reimbursement after both of his convictions were invalidated and he was not retried. He would have affirmed the appellate decision allowing recovery of costs, fees, and restitution, reasoning that a defendant who proves a conviction invalid should be restored to the status quo ante regardless of whether relief came through direct appeal or collateral review.
